How fast it's selling

Over the last 4 weeks, about 0.2% of this game's prizes were reported claimed each week, well below the average for Arizona's $10 games (0.9% a week). By tickets sold, it is still the estimated #32 best seller of the 56 Arizona tickets we can rank, at about 14,000 tickets a week: a small share of a big print run is a lot of tickets.

From ScratchCheck's daily record of the lottery's published prize counts. Dates are when a claim first appeared in those counts, and small prizes are often cashed days after purchase, so claims trail actual sales.
